Jesus and the Police

Part of what made playing music in Wylie today such a gift to me personally was that I've been dreaming of playing in a trio for a while now. This gave me a taste of what is possible again and raised my hopes. Like listening to some of the early live recordings of the Police did. There's something I love about the raw simplicity of a bass - drums - guitar trio.

Which raises the question, if the Police represented the Trinity which would be which? I'm guessing the Father would be the one with the original vision. If I remember correctly this is also the rythm that is behind everything else and in some ways holds it all together. I'm guessing the voice/mouthpeice and simple anchor might be Jesus. Which leaves the guitar player as the Holy Spirit -- coming and going like the wind (sometimes light sometimes driving), reminding you of what the voice has said.

About Me

A love for the arts, connecting people and seeing them grow is behind much of what I do. Songwriting is my main artistic focus and has been part or all of my income for many years. Leadership development work with small emerging organizations has been most of the rest. Some friends and I started the Dandelion Seed Company artists network to help artist grow. We have been very small and organic for a decade and are now expanding.
